MakeUI review
A focused prompt-to-mobile-screen tool with editable outputs and generous export access.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
MakeUI is a web-based AI design generation platform for founders, solo builders, product teams, and agencies creating mobile app interfaces. Users describe an app, audience, and flow in natural language, then generate editable screens with navigation, cards, forms, and empty states. It is particularly suited to developers who want a starting point they can refine and export, rather than teams looking only for static visual concepts.
Pricing is subscription-based with monthly credits. The Indie plan costs $9.99 per month and includes 100 monthly credits, unlimited projects, access to all models, unlimited code export, unlimited Figma export, and priority support. Pro costs $19.99 per month and raises the allowance to 300 monthly credits, while Power costs $39.99 per month and provides 700 monthly credits. The paid tiers share the same project, model, export, and support features; the main plan difference is the monthly credit allocation. There is no permanent $0 plan.
MakeUI’s strongest workflow combines prompt-driven generation with iterative screen and design editing. Figma export produces editable frames, while HTML/CSS output supports handoff toward implementation. Model selection spans Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI, giving teams a choice among supported model providers within the product. Private projects use row-level data isolation. Choose MakeUI if your work centers on generating and refining mobile screens with direct Figma and code export. Consider an alternative if you need a broader design-system workflow, native desktop access, or a product without recurring credit limits.
